If you pulled over a lad, of around my age for speeding. While telling him off and getting ready to write a ticket he broke down in very convincing tears because he would now get his car taken away by his parents and have to quit his job because of having points, would you change your mind? :d

Its a serious question. Could you really bring yourself to ticket a crying young lad begging not to be punished. Just I can cry very convincingly.

If you're gonna cry they might as well give you something to cry about.

I'm not BiB, but if I was in their shoes, I'd probably be even less sympathetic - if he knew the consequences he should've been a d&mn sight more careful of his speed!

Yes, absolutely no problem at all.

When I'd finished with you, it'd be for real, not just for show...

Make your mind up Ben - do you want to join them or water them?

It wouldn't change my decision.....if I'd decided that the speed warranted a ticket or Report on Summons, then that is what you'd get...

By no way a sexist statement, but there are many women who cry when stopped by the police. We just can't let people off if they turn on the waterworks...

I've only had 3 males cry...incidentally..

Ach! So my sexy long legs, normally wasp-like, curvy figure, Greta Garbo accent and lots of "Liebchen", eyelash fluttering, tossing of my glossy naturally auburn locks, and a Bardot pout and my natural "Marilyn" boobies up front will not get me outa bother then!

Donnerwetter! Dann spiele ich die beleidigte Leberwurst!

On the contrary...I'd be more likely to ticket a woman pouting herself...I would hate to think she'd later bragged to her mates that the 'weak traffic cop had let her off after getting a glipse of cleavage'.. I'm totally uncorruptable...

As for you wildcat...you could curl up on my knee

Wildcat, oh dear. Is "leberwurst" a type of sausage?

It translates literally as playing the upset liver sausage. (getting into a bit of a huff! Or acting the "prima donna"

(Well - German speaking people are famed for sausages - best Bratwurst is actually in Leipzig! At takeaway near the town hall .. )

It originates from sensitive liver (from all that beer and schnaps) - and when your liver is playing up - you are irritated . So in humourous language - Germans added "sausage"... und it has been idiom for 200 years or so.....

They also talk about a louse walking over their liver id something is bugging them>..

Mir ist eine Laus uber die Leber gelaufen!

There! You now how summat to say in the snug when it goes quiet!

I do indeed - Liebchen! I swim, ski, speed skate und you need to keep in shape for that.

Besides - it is fun! Firm has its own gym facilities....

Mad Doc - plays rugby and golf to keep fit - and he also dons his lycra and rides his push bike ..... und I join him sometimes mit the kittens.

Also - lucky enough to live in Fell Walking country ....

That's easy for you to say!

Some us might see it differently - if we knew what it meant.

Best wishes all,
